Zalman CNPS 10X Extreme CPU Cooler Review

A Closer Look

With the cooler out of the packing we can get a good look at it, and it looks very nice. The “black pearl” finish covers the entire cooler. The fan is attached with 4 screws to the main shroud.

The shroud is attached with clips to the fins and wraps around the top of the cooler

Looking at the top of the cooler we can see the PWM Fan Mate controller. The controller is detachable and Zalman provides an extension cable so you can remote mount the controller. The cable is long enough to be routed out the back of the case and around the side to the front.
